___________________ Fixes ___________________
12/16 - Realized that default controls were not disabled so people could use arrow keys. Disabled default controls to force the use of mouse as intended.
12/17 - Fixed Graphics bug where the animation for dying would happen behind an object or off screen.
WIP - Game Freeze at end of first level after getting the Elixer of Youth.

Nice art and interesting concept, took me a while to get a hang of the controls but once i did it was fun :)

I quite liked it! Interesting take on the theme. The controls need a bit of tuning but are quite enjoyable.

Very nice controls. I really liked the inertia and double-jump, feels fun.

Nice! The controls are pretty loose, but it was fun to play

Interesting concept. I'm afraid I'm too bad at this kind of games to play all of it, but it's a solid game nonetheless.

I enjoyed it. True to the theme. Really unforgiving towards my skill level.

Really interesting. Great use of the two button controls, it had a nice, foreboding atmosphere, and the music was on point!

I do think it could benefit from some more uniform graphics/visual data/particles to make somethings more defined and look prettier.

But other than that, pretty solid entry. Good job!

Another tough game (why don't people ever ramp up difficulty slowly in LD games? lol), with really unique controls.

has potential but the difficulty spike goes from 0 to pro in the second level needed play testing and bearly explain

Really loved the art progression of the character over time. The controls where a bit hard to understand at first but it got better over time. I think the hit boxes on the hazards where a bit big. Overall nice work.
